Mr Gregory Germani, the Managing Director of WAPCo, said the donation made on behalf of WAPCo board of directors, Management as well as the entire work force formed part of the company's corporate social responsibility to the communities they operated in to protect them in this time of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mr Germani noted that just as Ghana had received the items, other countries they operated in such as Nigeria, Togo and Benin were also receiving their donation to aid them in fighting the disease.

Dr Patrick Adjei, Head, Department of Medicine and Therapeutics, on behalf of the Hospital expressed appreciation to the company for the gesture to aid in the treatment of patients in the facility.
